Hehe, there's a reason why I usually favor the underdog almost always when I have a choice. They just tend to cause less security vulnerabilities or are less interested in your private data.
Facebook I always use in a private window. Yeah, it doesn't stop much of the tracking they do, but it does stop some of it. If somebody sends me an interesting link through Facebook, I may actually censor the FB added crap from the URL. Or try to find the same link with Google search.
Using Opera as a browser seems to have worked for me. I don't have a Google account and do my email instead with a 15 year-old address that has probably already been removed from the spam lists already.
Jolla mobile phone Sailfish OS is surprisingly well separated from Android as well though it can actually run Android apps. So far it has served me well, on top of that I can actually kill the internet and GPS, and trust that they also stay dead until I say so. I can actually open the Facebook with similar private window setting as I can with a computer if I need to. Then again, I rarely need a web connected phone in Finland (and that Facebook with a mobile phone is indeed a gimmick), but it's handy with bus and train schedules in Southern Finland. When driving cars in Northern parts, I don't need maps or navigation.
But it is annoying that YouTube still seems to be attaching some kind of statistics for the channel preferences; if I look for 90s music, that **** is visible in every YouTube recommendations for next three days or so. Can't imagine what it would feel like if it connected my work and civil life computers.
